Living in a household where family members have different dietary preferences can be challenging. This issue is particularly tricky for the caregiver who is responsible for meal planning, buying the groceries, and budgeting for the family.
Find easily modifiable meals like Mexican dishes (e.g. tacos) then use the buffet method where all components of the meal are placed on the table so family members can choose what they want in their meal. Separate animal products from the plant-based foods if some family members are vegetarian/vegan.
Communicate! Talk with the family about favourite meals and how these can be suited to all food preferences in the household. For example, pizza can be prepared with vegan cheese and lots of veggies while a second pizza can be prepared the way an omnivore enjoys. Not much extra work for the cook and everybody is happy.
This will make life much easier because you will only need to prepare one meal for everyone on this day. Find a vegan dish that meat lovers enjoy and use this meal as the meatless Monday dish. Maybe you will convert the meat eater in the house to becoming more plant-based! Vegan lasagna or spaghetti bolognese are good options.
Cheap pantry food staples are a must. Things like pasta, rice, noodles and potatoes are great bases for both vegan, vegetarian, and meat dishes. Simply add salad/vegetables and plant/animal protein to suit the whole family.

For mums who are able, breastfeeding is best for babies. It delivers many benefits for both mum and baby and contains all the nutrients your little one needs to thrive. Maintaining a healthy diet during pregnancy and while breastfeeding is also important.
Please consult a health professional for appropriate feeding advice and support. Deciding to use formula either partially or exclusively may reduce your breast milk supply, and reversing this decision may be difficult. Please also consider the financial and social implications when deciding on a feeding method for your baby.
When preparing infant formula, always follow the feeding guide and directions carefully as improper use or incorrect preparation can make your baby unwell.
